EXPORTS LARGER
THAN RECEIPTS
Predicted That 1 his wiii Be ihe
Record Week For Shipment
This Season.
NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 1.?Shipments
of cotton fron? ports today wen. over
100,000 bales larger than receipts, to
talling 155,047, against 55,249 receiv
ed. Foreign shipments aggregated
136,493 bales. These figures gave
strength to predictions that this will
be the record week for exports thus
far this season just as the shipments
today made a new record.
Hulls predict that the export move
ment for Februury will be over 1.
500,000 bales or about 200,000 bales
larger than January exports. This
forecast is based on the large freight
bookings, the continued spot demand
and the piling up of stocks at the
ports, although port stocks lost 85,
22S hales today, being reduced to 1,
920,900.
In some quarters it was predicted
that tho height of the export move
ment will not come' until March,
shippers now are paying 13.?5 a bale
for room for Rotterdam ami-all avail
able ships are being pressed Into the
cotton trade.
The total amount of cotton on ship
board at all ports on the week end was
519.223 bales, breaking all records.
Over ten million bales of the crop al
ready have been marketed and many
locnl traders think the remainder of
the erop may be sold more easily than
was the first ten million hales.

TRANSMISSION LINE
OUT OF COMMISSION
FOR SHORT WHILE YESTER
DAY ON ACCOUNT OF
SHORT CIRCUIT
SOON REPAIRED
Wire Came in Contact With Wet
Pole Just West of Oliver
Bolt's Residence.
A short-circuit on the transmission
line? or the Southern Public Utilities
Company between Portman Shoals
and the city, caused by a wire coming
in contact with an extremely wet pole,
at a point Just west of the home of
Mr. Oliver Bolt, crippled the several
cotton mills about the city using elec
tric current for several hours yester
day. %. \ x
The trouble occurred shortly after
9 o'clock yesterday morning and by 2
o'clock in the afternoon the cause of
trouble;had been discovered. By J
o'clock the damage had been repaired
and the transmission Unes restored to
service.
As soon as the transmission line
went out of com m h "Ion the ste^ra
turbine auxiliary plan: in the city was
fired up. - This was started working
about. 1 o'clock and supplied power
until the Portman Shot Is power was
brought Into service-again.
Manager H. A. Orr o' the Anderson
branch of the Southern Public Utili
ties Company stated .that the short
circuit was caused' by a cross arm on
a cedar pole giving way slightly and
allowing the wire to come in contact
wPh'the pole. The pole forms the
point of/an angle In the line and for
this reason the cross arm had.to give
way only a few inches In order to
cause the wire to come into contact
with the pole. The particular pole
where the cross circuit occurred is of
cedar and had become thoroughly
soaked with rain, which caused the
wire ?o become grounded as soon as
It touched.
The Anderson Cotton Mills, the Orr
Mills, the Townsend Twine Mill and
the Equinox Mill were affected by the
disabling or the transmission line. The
power from rne Gregg Shoals plant
kept the'city tfuppjled with current, so
Industries of. a smaller nature were
not affected by the trouble, on the
Portman Shoals Uno.
